Certified Pilates Instructor

Devra Swiger, owner and founder of Ab-Solutely Pilates, discovered the Pilates method in the fall of 1999 after a back injury prevented her from teaching a full schedule of aerobic and fitness classes. She read an article on the benefits of the Pilates method and decided to try a few private sessions. After her first session, she was hooked.
